The Breathtaking 19th-Century Apartment of Petra Tungården

This apartment has it all! I have been in love with this home ever since it was featured in a magazine a couple of years ago (see the pictures here) and now we also have the real estate pictures.

The apartment belongs to Petra Tungården, a Swedish blogger and content creator. And the first image you see of this home immediately draws you in. The first thing you notice is that gorgeous blue tiled fireplce (a kakelugn) followed by a spectacular painted ceiling.

I love the contrast of the colder blue tones and that warm wooden ceiling. The light blue walls are combined with furnishings in light colors to create a calm look for the space.

2022 is the year of blue tones. Several paint companies have chosen blue as their Color of the Year 2022. You can read more in the Color Trends 2022.

The kitchen is a modern black Ballingslöv island combined with Carrara marble and to make it even better, the kitchen also has a kakelugn.

The bedroom is painted in a lovely blue/green shade and as a cherry on the pie the apartment also has a jealous-making walk-in-closet.
